“The smartphone self-portrait or ‘Selfie’ has established itself as a form of self-expression and we are only looking to support this fact with our OPPO F1 Plus with 16MP front camera” – Sky Li, OPPO Global VP

The big selling point of OPPO F1 Plus though is it’s impressive 16 megapixel front facing camera, designed to offer up the perfect selfie. This camera features a 78.1-degree wide-angle lens and an f/2.0 aperture. The rear camera is a 13 megapixel sensor, complete with LED flash, PDAF autofocus, 4K video recording capabilities, and an f/2.2 aperture. There’s plenty for photography enthusiasts to play around with here.

The OPPO F1 Plus will set customers back Rs. 26,990. If you like the look of it, you can go out and purchase one today. If you’re not living in India, the handset already made its way to some international markets back at the beginning of April and should be heading to Europe next month.
